Luke Combs won Song of the Year at last night's 2022 BMI Awards for his #1 single, "Forever After All." Written by Combs, Drew Parker and Rob Williford, the track was BMI's most performed country song this past year.
The reigning CMA Entertainer of the Year is nominated tonight for three more awards at the 56th Annual CMA Awards: Entertainer of the Year, Male Vocalist of the Year and Album of the Year (Growin' Up). Combs will also perform his latest (and 14th consecutive) #1 single, "The Kind of Love We Make," during tonight's live broadcast.
The accolades add to another triumphant year for Combs, who, in yet another unprecedented feat, immediately sold out his massive 2023 World Tour, including all 16 of the North American stadium dates. With 39 shows across 3 continents and 16 countries, the record-breaking run is the largest tour ever for a country artist.
The trek includes shows at Arlington, TX's AT&T Stadium, Nashville's Nissan Stadium and Foxborough's Gillette Stadium, as well as stops in Australia, New Zealand, U.K., Ireland, Germany, Netherlands, Norway, Sweden, Denmark, Switzerland, France and Belgium. See below for complete tour itinerary.
The World Tour follows the release of Combs' widely acclaimed new album, Growin Up', which debuted at #1 onBillboard's Top Country Albums chart this past summer. The record features twelve tracks including Combs' current single, "Going, Going, Gone," which was recently sent to country radio and is rapidly rising.
A member of the Grand Ole Opry and a 6x CMA, 3x ACM, 3x Billboard Music Award-winner, Combs is in the midst of a record-setting and historic series of years. His previous release, What You See Ain't Always What You Get, debuted at #1 on the all-genre Billboard 200 chart as well as Billboard's Top Country Albums chart.
With the record Combs reached #1 on Rolling Stone's Top 200 Albums chart, Top 100 Songs chart and Artists 500 chart-the first country artist ever to lead all three charts in the same week and first to top the Artists 500. He also made history as the first artist ever to have their first two studio albums spend 25 weeks or more at #1 on Billboard's Top Country Albums chart-breaking Taylor Swift's previously held record at 24 weeks.
